"Doctor Lintrell?"
The brown-haired woman looked up from her desk and lowered her cats-eye glasses. "Yes? Do we have an appointment?"
The short woman and tall man, both dressed in dark suits and also brown-haired, stepped into the office. The woman pulled out her identification. "You called us, Doctor. Agents Kelly and Smolder, Homeland Security."
"Oh, yes, please close the door and have a seat. I wouldn't have called, but since the incident, I've been having nightmares -- flashbacks?"
The agents sat. The man, Smolder, leaned forward, looking skeptical. "About a large blue penis?"
The doctor flushed. "I thought it was nothing, but a week ago I missed my period, and I haven't had sex with anyone...well, anyone I remember, anyway. I tested myself and...I'm pregnant. The blue penis keeps popping up in my dreams, so I think someone hypnotized me, not that I used to believe in hypnosis, but..." She reached into her desk. "...then I found this." She held out a piece of paper.
Kelly read it and then handed the paper to her partner. On it was the date from three weeks previous, some scribblings about a "John Smith", an unspecified problem with his penis, and the last thing written was, "BLUE!"
"I don't remember writing that, agents, but it's definitely my handwriting."
Smolder took a picture of the note with his phone and handed it back to the doctor. "John Smith, huh?"
She looked nettled. "Obviously a fake name...I expect that he was embarrassed about his penis."
Kelly nodded. "And you can't remember anything about this man, other than that?"
Doctor Lintrell shook her head. "I'm sorry...my staff didn't even remember him. One thought that he might have had brown hair?"
Smolder stood up. "Brown hair? We'll have this solved by lunch! Thanks, Doctor Lintrell." Then he turned on his heel and stomped out of the room.
"I'm sorry for my partner," Kelly said. "He's a bit of a skeptic."
The doctor nodded. "You said you were Homeland Security? I called the local police."
Kelly got to her feet. "We believe that this could be far bigger than a local issue." She drew closer and whispered, "Aliens."
The doctor looked at her blankly. "You think 'John Smith' is Mexican?"
Kelly frowned and sighed. "Something like that. We'll be in touch, Doctor."
